      You cant really say Khan has no fear.How many credible opponents has Khan called?
      @ Khan called a hospitalised Hatton,everyone knows Hatton has had it and should retire and that's when Khan calls Hatton.

        Fighting Bradley next would not be a smart move, he has time on his side so why rush and go after one of the most dangerous fighters in the division? He should now be trying to raise his profile in the US and defending his own title and consilidating his position...not rushing into unification fights. He is not ready for the real elite of the divison yet, and roach knows this despite what he might say in public

            I have no problem with Salita or Maidana.

            Stylistically, Khan should smash Maidana, essentially he is as basic as it gets at the very top-level.

            Salita I have never seen, but he is the mandatory.

              True, but I think he'd lose tomorrow. I don't think he will after half-a-dozen more fights (even picked ones) under Roach's tutelage.

              I just don't buy this 'heart of a warrior' macho stuff; it's exactly the same crap you see in relation to a now completely pointless Prescott rematch. The kid is still learning, and he's only 22. If, wisely, Warren and Roach are very careful about who he fights for a couple of years while he gains experience and profile they are just doing their job. With each fight he wins not only does he have a better chance of beating those guys but (something that seems to get forgotten) he becomes more and more marketable and can get a share of the pie that's actually worth having when he fights them.

              If Khan is being still protected at the ripe old age of 25, ***** then.

                Khan doesn't want to be jumping into things at the moment. Bradley or Maidada would own Khan right now, it would be a bad move for him. He shouldn't get to ahead of himself because it will only be a matter of time till he gets knocked out again, he should avoid both these guys and pick fights he's more then lightly to win!

                  I don't think maidana is beyond him at all, his stock his high right now, but like someone else already mentioned he is very basic and crude, ortiz fought a bad fight his tactics were poor, and if he has re-watched it yet he will know this. Maidana has a good chance against khan because he is a big puncher, but khan is well capable of beating him, and I think after another learning fight, and 2 more training camps under roach khan will be ready to dominate someone like maidana and I wouldn't be surprised if he went one better than kotelnik and stopped him.

                  Bradley, Holt, campbell, etc are still beyond him though
